Dear Newt, Ron Paul would like to warmly welcome you to your new role as frontrunner, or at least almost-frontrunner, with this blistering new ad. It's called "Serial Hypocrisy," notes the Daily Caller, and it weaves together various clips (Gingrich talking health care with Nancy Pelosi, the "social engineering" comment about Paul Ryan, his Freddie Mac riches, Rush Limbaugh blasting him, etc.) into a two-and-a-half-minute assault.

Business Insider: Calls it "scathing," with a clear aim to "remind conservatives why they didn't like Newt Gingrich the first time around."

Don't vote for this man, especially if you are doing it because you agree with him on "wedge issues". This country is in serious trouble, and if voters don't wake up to the realities, we could lose it all. Politicians that appeal to social conservatives are hoping that their anti-gay or anti-abortion stances will be enough to get the votes...mainly from seniors that want to turn back the clock. We can't go backwards, and wedge issues will not create jobs, strengthen our economy,or address the foreclosure crisis. Wake up people. Newt does not have any answers, and can't lead us anywhere but down.

By John E. Yang Washington Post Staff Writer Wednesday, January 22 1997; Page A01 The House voted overwhelmingly yesterday to reprimand House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) and order him to pay an unprecedented $300,000 penalty, the first time in the House's 208-year history it has disciplined a speaker for ethical wrongdoing. The ethics case and its resolution leave Gingrich with little leeway for future personal controversies, House Republicans said. Exactly one month before yesterday's vote, Gingrich admitted that he brought discredit to the House and broke its rules by failing to ensure that financing for two projects would not violate federal tax law and by giving the House ethics committee false information. Enough Said!!
